Capt. Neil Dussault said crews received a call around 12:19 a.m. for a single vehicle accident on Artesian Avenue in the Village of Big Bend.

Dussault said crews found the driver of the vehicle, a 20-year-old woman from Big Bend, severely injured as a result of the accident. She was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators said that the vehicle appeared to have been traveling east on Artesian Avenue from Scenic Drive when the driver appeared to lose control of the vehicle while cresting a hill. The car left the roadway and struck a utility pole.
